At the ongoing 2024 Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (KLIMS), a heavily camouflaged SUV is displayed alongside the newly launched Nissan Kicks e-Power on stage at Nissan Malaysia’s booth. Parked side-by-side, it might be easy to dismiss it as another variant of the Kicks but look closer and it’s something that Malaysians have been missing out for years. Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM) is previewing the current fourth-gen T33 Nissan X-Trail e-Power which could be the next e-Power model to b

Malaysia is one of a handful of countries that still offers the third-generation Nissan X-Trail (T32) while other markets offer its successor, the fourth-generation T33.

Let’s get one thing clear about vehicle ownership. Buying a car and maintaining a car are two very different aspects of the proprietorship experience… and the latter is something plenty of us are guilty of not factoring into the equation which can then become an expensive sum.
